I am currently looking for a new mobo and since I usually keep the same mobo+chip for 3 years, I am wondering how important it is to choose a chipset that supports PCIe 2.0? I will still use my current graphic card nVidia 8800GT (that supports PCIe 2.0) and will probably give it an upgrade in 1.5 years' time. By then, I am pretty sure PCIe 2.0 would be a de facto.
I am set for an Intel Core 2 Quad (Q9450) processor. Just confused over the chipset. P35 doesn't support PCIe 2.0. nForce 750i does but I read better reviews on the Intel chipsets than the nVidia ones. Please help.
